    Emm labs DA2 v2 upgrade

    Hi Audire: Was there a reason that you chose DA2v2 over DV2? Did you have a chance to compare these two DACs? Thanks, Teera A.

    Introducing Center Stage 2M

    Thanks Steve. I have Symposium Acoustics Svelte Plus shelfs on top of my sturdy wooden cabinet. Would it be better to take out Symposium shelfs and put CS2Ms on top of the wooden cabinet? Thanks, Teera A.

    Introducing Center Stage 2M

    Hi, My EMM Labs DV2 has three feet. Should I put three CS2M 1.5 feet under it?

    Center Stage2 "LS" Series Loudspeaker Feet

    The (bottom) borders area of AR Ref6 SE is metal which is wide enough even for CS2M 1.5. Would it be working if I put feet under these metal chasis? P.S. I've ordered LS 1.5 from local dealer here in Bangkok and looking forward to try it on my SF Il Cremonese Ex3me.

    Emm labs DA2 v2 upgrade

    What is the shortest burn-in time of DV2/DA2? The dealer brought me my black DV2 and took back a borrowed DA2 V2 yesterday. The sound of new DV2 was so terrible, very thin, dry with no sound stage. But after 24 hrs., it's improved quite a lot. Probably because I used Nordost system burn-in...

    Holo Audio May KTE Dac

    They were out of stock at that time and hadn't shipped anything to me.

    Holo Audio May KTE Dac

    After 2-3 emails, the guy gave me a refund. I still have Spring 2 Wildism edition. And if the May is a step or two above Spring, it should be fabulous.

    Emm labs DA2 v2 upgrade

    Never heard your edition but I'm sure that some will think yours sound better and some will like mine. The Ext3me are very good speakers but with 2 JL F112 subwoofers and CR1 active XO, I can spend the rest of my days with them.

    Emm labs DA2 v2 upgrade

    Thanks Ian. I've a PC running on Audiolinux OS with HDplex 500w ATX LPS as Roonserver and NS1 as Roon endpoint. Taiko Extreme plus good USB cable probably cost 35k USD. I agree that is too much for marginal SQ improvement unless a dealer can demonstrate otherwise with my system.

    Has anyone compared Taiko Audio Extreme + USB cable VS NS1 + Optimism Lotus cable (using Roon Nucleus or PC with good LPS)?

    Yes, I do.

    Center Stage2 "LS" Series Loudspeaker Feet

    Thanks Joe. I might try CS2 LS first. Any suggestions or comments on using these feet on Sonus Faber Il Cremonese Extr3m. The speakers have 2 ports at the bottom but i think they could accommodate the LS 1.5 with 3" diameter. I'm using the SF with 2 JL Audio subwoofers via active xo at 90 Hz...

    Emm labs DA2 v2 upgrade

    I got Aural Symphonics Optimism Lotus ST two days ago and highly recommend this cable to anyone using NS1. The SQ improvement per dollar spent on this cable outstrips all accessories that I own.

    Joe mentioned about CS2 in this thread, that is why I asked him here.

    Center Stage2 "LS" Series Loudspeaker Feet

    Hi Joe, I read from page 2 that the CS2 doesn't work on AR Pre (6SE) and pre phono but does it work on AR 160M and Emm Labs DV2? Thanks.

    Emm labs DA2 v2 upgrade

    Hi Yuen, How do you connect your sub? Do you use active xo? I have two JL F112 connecting to JL CR1 xo. The two subs (one in the front and other in the back close to listening seat) smooth out room mode significantly.

    Hi Audire, You can buy Aural Symphonics Optimism Lotus ST from the Cable Co. and make "a final price request" and get 10% discount. I just did.

    Emm labs DA2 v2 upgrade

    Aural Symphonics Optimism Lotus ST, is this what I should get for the NS1? Where should I buy it? The Cable Comp?

    Emm labs DA2 v2 upgrade

    Thanks, Yuen. The guy seems to be more co-op and hopefully I'll get a refund in three days. If all is ok I'll get DV2 as price is more or less the same as DA2. I'll have a chance to compare Sonore opticalrendu with NS1. If it is ok, I'll use Sonore for streaming and NS1 for a transport.

    Emm labs DA2 v2 upgrade

    Here is my story; I've auditioned DA2 V2 in my system for a second time. As recommended by members of this thread I use Ansuz DTC supreme to connect with the dac and D2 interconnect two my amp (AR ref 160M). I upgrade power conditioner to Ansuz DTC and using two DTC power cables (to...

    Holo Audio May KTE Dac

    ...I should add that it would be very difficult for me to sell the May in my country, Thailand, as the HoloAudio is unknown here.

    Holo Audio May KTE Dac

    I've ordered the May KTE edition from Wildism HK but with a change of plan I want to cancel my purchase. Yiu, the Wildism contact guy emailed and told me that I cannot cancel (even I don't mind to pay cancellation fee) as the order is with specific specs and presumably he cannot sell the unit...

    Emm labs DA2 v2 upgrade

    Hi, I would like to thanks all the forum participants here. I've followed this thread for awhile as I am interested in DA2 and had it auditioned at my home. It sounded good but I were not that impressed probably because many components in my system are not up to it. I returned the dac 4 days...
